Sentiment: POSITIVE
This is at the heart of all good education, where the teacher asks students to think and engages them in encouraging dialogues, constantly checking for understanding and growth.
We can teach a lot of things, but if the teacher can't relate by talking to a group of friendly students, he'll never be a competent teacher.
A good teacher is a determined person.
Any good teacher knows how important it is to connect with students and understand our culture.
A good teacher, like a good entertainer first must hold his audience's attention, then he can teach his lesson.
Once in a while, I have the chance to speak to students. I learn from them as much as they learn from me. It's a great dialogue to create.
As an educator myself, I understand the profound effect that good teachers and a quality education have on the lives of our young people.
Good teachers know how to bring out the best in students.
I learned that when something just has to be said to move the discussion along, or broaden it or deepen it, if I can just keep my mouth shut for five minutes a student will say it. So for me a lot of teaching is about keeping my mouth shut.
A good teacher can inspire hope, ignite the imagination, and instill a love of learning.
